I would also support drone manufacturers self regulating via GPS deadzones in designated no fly areas.
Nearly all drones of a meaningful size are GPS enabled and could be disabled in range of a no fly zone. Yes it could be spoofed, yes it would require some effort from manufactures, but self inflicted regulation as an industry here could pay dividends if the alternative is ham fisted regulation following a drone/airplane catastrophe.
- NiekvdMaas 8y agoThat's exactly what all major drones do. DJI has a market share of about 75% [1] and you cannot take off any of their success in a restricted flight zone. Flight zone updates are also mandatory and forced to the users. Same for Yuneec, which has another 5% market share. 1. http://thedronegirl.com/2018/09/18/dji-market-share/ http://thedronegirl.com/2018/09/18/dji-market-share/
